About HackSoc
HackSoc is the University of York's Computer Science society. We run a healthy mix of academic and social events:
- Talks on a range of topics from industry speakers, members and alumni
- CoffeeScript, our weekly lunchtime social in the Glasshouse on Hes East
- Board Games and Cake, an old HackSoc tradition on alternating Friday evenings in the Pod
- Film Night, where we watch a film (or sometimes several) on alternating Friday evenings in the Pod
- HackPub, where members past and present meet in the Rook and Gaskill near Walmgate
Our events are open to non-members and to students studying any subject. Come along to anything that catches your eye!
